The Great Human Race (2016– )

Reality show or history or documentary?

[2/10 · 11 February 2020]

Two people trying to follow the first humans at nature. They try to live the struggle the way the first humans experienced but... Day 1: They need meat, a dead animal pops on the way :) She is wearing animal fur but she has make up :) Day 2: They claim the night was rough, it rained twice, they got wet... We see all clothes are dry. She has new make up. The story goes on... Felt insulted.

Trauma Center (2019)

What happened to Bruce?

[3/10 · 9 December 2019]

Bruce we love you, we grew up watching you. We see your work since Moonlight tv series from 1985 and appreciate it meaning it has been 35 years. We've been to "Look Who is Talking" not for Travolta acting, but you for dubbing. But I am afraid you are losing the touch. Watching you is became painful in the last decade. I guess you are the second most declined actor after Nicholas Cage. About the movie; Bruce can not act, Nicky finds time to change her hair style 3 times in the first half hour (there is a hair saloon inside the hospital I guess). The two polices must be the dumbest two officers I have seen, it is a miracle for them to pass any tests to be an officer :) Bruce; please get better soon...

ARQ (2016)

Nothing Happens In the End

[4/10 · 24 August 2019]

First allthe good reviews here, makes you wanna watch it. You watch it and you wait something to happen during the entire film. It ends and leaves with you a dissatisfaction. Does not worth an hour and a half because you even don't get an ending after that time waste. Nonsense.

Rust Valley Restorers (2018– )

Fabricated Side Stories, A Reality Not A Documentary

[5/10 · 24 August 2019]

He has 400 cars and still we go to the neighbors to check for missing parts. He makes promises and we have to think the pressure is entertaining, oh my god will he be able to finish within the budget because he did not calculate the labor? Restoring 70 Swinger and ta-daa , the neighbor is using a matching backseat as a garden couch, restoring a 64 Riviera and it is mentioned 4 times in the show that aluminium wheel covers are rare to find and what a coincidence we find a set in the neighbor's junk trunk. He says he hired 8 workers in the first episode, and then you hear him saying he is short handed because of his son's burnt hand and there is nobody else in the garage. We watch 10 minutes for the truck stuck in the mud, we watch another 10 for the son's burnt hand , we watch 10 minutes for the young female worker to learn to drive but we can not see how the car is converted from a wreck to a muscle car even for a minute. Then you wonder how that wreck turned into this ride, I thought I sat to watch the transformation didn't I? Result: Too much rubbish, too little car labor. You better call it a reality instead of a documentary.

Harrow: Sub Silentio (2019) Season 2, Episode 8

The story is dragging its feet

[5/10 · 7 July 2019]

I am a fan of this show from the beginning and was very happy to see that season 2 has started. But it is loosing its genuinity and quality just to drag the story to the next episode each week. In the second season, all the side characters are acting like a bunch of idiots just trying not to see the events just to help the series to drag the story just one more and one more and one more episode. If the coroner or the police department of Brisbane is watching this show, they must sue the series just for being shown this incompetent and imprudent

Triple Frontier (2019)

Too long and becomes boring after a while...

[5/10 · 13 March 2019]

Good actors and the plot offers at least a 7,5 or more and you sit down to watch it. Then it turns out to a predictable movie and you get bored after a while because it is too long and you always guess something is on the way to happen. A Ben Affleck or an Oscar Isaac movie this boring? Yes it is sad... By the way, be sure that the rating will decrease after the exaggerated votes come and go .

Leyla and Mecnun (2011–2023)

Turkish Coupling

[10/10 · 27 January 2012]

A lot better of the American Coupling TV series, quality close to British coupling. The best Turkish TV series ever made. I prefer watching this , instead of classical Nbc TV series like How I Met Your Mother. I hope the quality goes on. The series start with a flashback , where we see two babies, who are meant to be together forever , a classical oriental far/middle east story. The background is the Bosphorus and Istanbul.Mecnun is in her mid twenties , still trying to graduate from high school and Leyla is in university, living in a mansion.Arda is the ex boyfriend of Leyla, whose father is doing business with Leyla's father and Leyla's father is in huge depth. He tries to convince his daughter to marry to Arda.Because it is an absurd comedy, you can see Mecnun in space , sometimes Leyla on an island after a plane crash (Oceanic Airways :) ), sometimes a friend of them trying to survive 147 hours on a mountain :)... The series created a huge fan group and still groving .
